Description
The Vetra is a dual-purpose wall and semi-flush ceiling light built around a 30cm opal glass globe held inside a matt black metal frame. The frame forms an open rectangle that brackets the globe from above and behind, giving the fitting a graphic, architectural outline. A single E27 lamp holder sits inside the globe (bulb sold separately), and the opal glass diffuses the output into a soft, even glow.
The fitting is designed to mount either on a wall as a wall light or on a ceiling as a semi-flush light, which makes it useful in hallways, stairwell landings, bedrooms beside a bed, and rooms with lower ceilings where a long pendant drop would not work. At 31.6cm tall and 30cm in diameter it suits compact spaces and layered lighting schemes where a softer secondary source is needed alongside primary downlights or a central pendant.
The metal frame is finished in matt black with a low sheen that pairs cleanly with monochrome interiors, industrial-leaning schemes, and warm timber surfaces. The globe is sealed at the top by a black metal cap that conceals the lamp holder and cable entry, so the diffuser reads as a clean opal sphere rather than a part-lit shade. Total weight is 2.7kg and the fitting runs on standard 220-240V mains.

Frequently Asked
Can the Vetra be fitted as both a wall light and a ceiling light?
Yes. The Vetra is designed to work as either a wall light or a semi-flush ceiling light using the same fitting. The geometric frame reads correctly in both orientations, so it can be installed on a wall beside a bed or above a console, or on a ceiling in a hallway or low-ceilinged room.
What bulb does it take?
The fitting takes a single E27 (Edison screw) bulb, sold separately. A warm white LED between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K typically suits the opal globe well, providing soft ambient light without the heat output of a higher-wattage filament bulb.
Is it suitable for low ceilings?
Yes. As a semi-flush fitting the Vetra projects 36cm from the ceiling, far less than a pendant. It works in rooms with ceiling heights from around 2.3m upwards, including hallways, landings and bedrooms.
Is it suitable for bathrooms?
No. It has no stated IP rating, so it is for dry rooms only.
